Abstract

An object is to provide a card game machine capable of enhancing gameplay. A card game machine has a game board including a plurality of reader / writers configured to communicate with a semiconductor device which is mounted on a card and capable of wireless communication, and a control device connected to the reader / writer and configured to determine the position or orientation of the card or whether the card is put face up or down based on a signal from the reader / writer. By arrangement of a plurality of reader / writers and RF chips in the game board, not only data of the card but also signal strength can be detected, and the detailed position of an RF chip of the card which is placed on the game board can be specified.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a game machine.
